Howard Holley Presents Against All Odds: How Successful People Overcome Adversity

In this first of two interviews, Pastor Charles Silano shares his story of entanglement in the criminal world and his journey into a different way of life. Born in Italy and raised in New Jersey, Silano eventually found his way to Florida, where he serves as Pastor of Grace Tabernacle Ministries International in Palm Coast. Although Pastor Silano now serves God and his community, he did not always walk that path. Silano led a life filled with drug dealing, smuggling and laundering money; he once used his student loan grant to fund his entre into selling drugs. Pastor Silano now runs the Grace Community Food Pantry, helping to feed the increasing number of needy families in Flagler County.
